Manny that is so bad@$$ that Nicks reached out to you to test a boot in a field. Shows they care and shows you are living the boot life. Thank you for sharing this. Cheers
Thank you so much! I'm honor for the great relationship with Nicks. They had grow a lot in the past years. Wish them the best to keep making good products. A big hug brother!
@@MIIIB hey you never talk about your sizing. How did you size your Nicks compared to your brannock? Do you own any 55 or 11067 last boots? I just got a Prospector (11067 last) in 11E, and it fits well, but I wonder if I could possibly even fit into a 10.5EE. I am an 11.5D on brannock and most of my boots are 11-11.5, but these Nicks in 11067 seem to still have some room up front. I also hear people talking about 1 full size down from brannock, instead of the 1/2 size down Nick’s recommends. I guess I’m wondering how different an 11E and 10.5EE are in size.
@EDHblvd hey brother !!! A big apology for passing the size question. I am 9 EE Brannock and use 8.5EE Nicks HNW and 55 last, same with Whites 55. I can go EEE wide or even F but I like tight on the sides, after breaking that stretch, and fit perfectly. Some people compensate width Brannock and go a size up with long D shoes. I think if you fit well with 67 last and size stay there. If a composite toe may feel like a lot of room but the best way to know if is half-size long check the ball. Flex your foot and check where is the flexing in the up portion of the vamp. That will guide you to understand if your foot fits correctly
@@MIIIB good to know. It seems the half size down from brannock is tried and true. I’ll stick with ordering same size with other lasts, which I just did with the HNW Overlander!
Thanks Manny. Looks like some good improvements for some of us. I do lots of ladder work and pipe bending so i would probably sick to the old style. Plus I don’t get wet.
Hey man nice to hear about that! I want to keep both close since doing plumbing had to use a lot the ladder, as well painting. At the same time if only service calls this 365 came so nice. Cheer brother. Keep pounding those pipes 💪🏻
Wow, looks like wonderful boots. Now I'm scratching my head. I still don't have my Overlanders (ordered 20 weeks ago) and I'm wondering if I'd rather have this model. I ordered the Overlanders with the honey vibram sole for many of the same reasons you like this new 365 model. My uses are working around the house and shop, hunting, camping and hiking. Thanks for this nice look at this new model, Manny!
Rick I used the boot and thought about you! This will fit you a lot better than the normal style. Is more comfortable and flexible. I can say a mix of builder pro and tactical boot
@@MIIIB I don't know which model would be better for my uses, the 1964 brn Overlander with the honey sole or this new model. I see the new model has the same type of stitching where the heel and foot meet in the arch as opposed to the "overlap" stitching at that spot on the Builder Pros, which makes them a little stiffer and harder to break in.
@@MIIIB I'll have to call them and discuss. I don't know if I ordered the new model if I would stay in the same spot in their que after waiting 20+ weeks or if they'd make me start over. They might not even let me order them since they're not listed yet to be ordered. :-)
Brother I had to look at the website since I lost track in "names" I can retain about 10 only ! hahaha. Ohhh Wow, what a tank boot, munson, weather shield and that outsole may do a very comfortable boot to probe in battle. Let me know how it behaves brother and congratulations!
Rubber is superior if you spend a lot of time standing in water or snow. I'm assuming that's a WaterWork prototype. It's all about the right tool for the job.
Thanks for the support Roger, well appreciated. The differences are easy to google, buddy. Basically, the welt, Nicks Mckay the vamp perimeter is the welt and they stitch thru midsole and outsole. Goodyear have a real welt and stitch welt, vamp, and midsole. Hansewn, well, is just stitching with your hands instead of machinery
The 365 reminds me of Danners, not quite what I’m interested in. Looks cheap and easier to make imo. I’ll stick to the old methods with a thick leather oak tan midsole
Already used mines quite of time and I can't see the 'easy made' it requires the same Amount of time and skill do those boots. Anyways, I like to hear people opinions, I agree part with you that I would have only that pair as 360 rubber and no need for other one, I will stick with the standard oak ta
@@MIIIB I agree. Its not “easy” it is just different. If anything it may be more of a challenge for Nicks, as it is a construction method their boot makers are not accustomed to making.
2:50 thats where my Whites smokejumpers boots broke. the heel came off the soles and the rusty nails were all sticking out. must have rotted or something.
Do u know any other boots that have 100% stitchdown? Aka cemented soles. I really like the idea of not having to pay a 200$ yearly subscription to have them resolved
Are you saying that everything that it makes all the bottom part of one of the most well made boot (leather insole, leather shank, leather midsole and leather stack heel) is now in testing terms and posible a slow replacement with the same cheap alternative that all mass produce boot brands does? 🤔 i wonder if they star looking for a price cut or a posible “lower price alternative “ just wonder!. Great videos! And a beautiful big collection you have! Thanks!!
Hey Jorge Saludos! Well I got a boot to review myself at not cost with a reduce shaft size. The exactly purpose was to check the new brown color. The boot have same leather upper, bottom, eyeleta, gusset, kiltie, pull-up and insole. They substitute the midsole with rubber and place a full Vibram made in USA full sole. I think we can't confuse that a change of midsole will make the boots inferior . I been testing hard the booot around water, doing tons of plumbing work. My backup boots when raining, are those, goes in my truck all the time. My point is those boots have a purpose, and work better than traditionals in that specific area. The flexing vamp is marvelous, just imagine carrying a PNW quality with movements like a tennis shoe. About price is hard to say if need to reduce bc the boot is last like all others, the eyelets, gusset, and all leather is exactly like all traditionals, the stitching is the same one, they cut the rubber and glue and stitch the outsole, the same labor like traditional boots. Maybe the heel stack portion they save? About $50 dlls less? The rubber midsole is top quality. Hard to say if they should move the price. Mass productions ? No way. Still handmade with machinery, but stitching, lasting, cutting, hardware is done by hands. I had seen manny comments on different platforms and I'm not a Nick's seller. Whites have a similar boot. If that one feela better take it, I believe is cheaper. Ultimately is what you gravitate more.... Would I buy a 365 boot? Short answer:NO. I'm old school and traditional is what I like better. However, I know people that like Nicks but they don't want the heavy boot, this is a perfect model for starters and those wanting a hiking, hunting or water resistant boot. I can tell you the midsole and heel stack being in contact with water in long periods those get very stiff. My own pair of chocolate RO I couldn't be comfortable with the midsole that stiff after many mud and water. I'm glad of having a pair that never loose the flexing vamp and comfort no matter the conditions. Thanks for the comment brother. 👍
Wow! Agradezco que te hayas tomado el tiempo de responder tan bien explicado! Nunca e cuestionado la calidad de nicks yo soy un fanático y tengo algunas hechas por nicks y un par de wesco asi como redwing. Y también creo que nicks esta en mejor lugar por su gran trabajo de manufactura pero mas pos su calidad de materiales!. Son momentos dificiles y se agradece que Nicks no a incrementado sus precios como los demás, mi punto no es criticar o tirarle tierra a uno de los fabricantes de botas que mas me gustan. Al contrario Espero que estas sean un producto mas y no un remplazo de forma de producción! Saludos Manuel y agradezco tu respuesta! Por cierto como van las renegade aun son las mas comodas?
@@Jorge_pdll mi hermano, aqui tienes un amigo, y aparte me encanta expresar ideas. Las tuyas son bienvenidas siempre. Tambien se aceptan criticas, creeme que hacer un buen debate y tener conclusiones me es de gran utilidad. En cuestion de una pull-on si creo que son muy comodas, las mas comodas. Si hablo de agujetas, ultimamente he usado mucho mis Bounty Hunters de Whites. Por ser de piel de 6oz en vez de 7-8oz como Nicks las encuentro en el punto perfecto, muy versatiles y demasiado comodas. Un abrazo Jorge! Cuando gustes, jamas te quedes con duda. Saludos
@@MIIIB Nicks WeatherShield leather is impregnated with silcone during the tanning process. This silcone infused leather causes water to bead off of without soaking in. Is it called weathershield brown??
They look nice and I understand these are very comfortable but I don’t want the outsole to be glued only. If the glue on the edge fails the whole sole will come off. I won’t be buying models with this construction.
Hey man totally understand. They had used since years ago the glue option. Actually the Latigo and Tan smooth builders are just glue. No screws or Stitching. Never had fail and the Tan Smooth being abused a lot of time 💪🏻. . Anyways is a preference and toti understand your point. They should do a 6" 365 would be a very nice hike boot
@Treaty Oak I have 2 boots where that are stitching the midsole but not the outsole. Never had failed me. People with 200plus lbs of weight recommend this method. When the midsole is thicker is a lot of effort to penetrate from the welt to the outsole .
@@MIIIB Thank you, Manuel. Your videos are honest and excellent. I also like that you live in Texas, as well, and your reviews are specific to our land and lifestyle. Based on your review and the Rose Anvil review of the Ridgeline(same boot minus the padded collar), I ordered a pair with the Weathershield Brown Leather.
@@CarlosValentor es lo que he notado, al menos dedicare unos 2 videos para los hermanos que hablan Español. Tambien unas actualizaciones de varias botas que ya hace falta .... Saludos cordiales 🙏🏻
I agree. Manny’s videos are honest and real. He works his boots harder than I ever would, so I can trust if they are working for him, they will work for me. I can also trust that if he finds a problem, its something real.

Only 25+ more weeks until my waterworks come in. Thanks for the review and help
Thanks to you my brother. 🙏 you guys are the reason for my videos. A big hug and many blessings to you my brother
Those could make a great hiking and hunting boot.
Yes man!!! 💪🏻 No doubt. Is a very fine style
They do have a new hiker boot, same construction. really considering those
I definitely like the leather midsole better. 360 welt looks good but I'm not interested in a rubber midsole at all.
Totally understandable!!🙌🏻
I agree too. I’m still waiting to receive my Waterworks. I’m thinking I’ll try a leather midsole once I’m ready for a resole.
Rubber is superior if you spend a lot of time standing in water or snow. I'm assuming that's a WaterWork prototype. It's all about the right tool for the job.
your videos are so detailed! Can you tell the difference between handsewn, goodyear, and mckay lock stitch or whatever?
Thanks for the support Roger, well appreciated. The differences are easy to google, buddy. Basically, the welt, Nicks Mckay the vamp perimeter is the welt and they stitch thru midsole and outsole.
Goodyear have a real welt and stitch welt, vamp, and midsole.
Hansewn, well, is just stitching with your hands instead of machinery
@Manuel III Briones but can YOU, tell the difference, BETWEEN different constructions, using your feet? They say hand-sewn is more comphy
@Roger R. of course not!
@Manuel III Briones oh OK, then it's all marketing hype. Even Blake stitch i can't really notice the stitches inside.

Get wedge soles
You have a lot of a Nicks. Ever plan on getting the Charley’s? Cheers
Yes, I tried to get those 2 times but the leather was out of stock and I had to change the model . Hope to get a pair in future
Only thing holding me back is not being able to try them first. If you follow their sizing/measuring instructions, will it be fairly accurate?
I wear them half size down and work perfectly for me and a lot of people.
